After returning to the United States, he and his brother Mike Maddux began focusing on baseball. He played very well during high school, but his slight build caused many colleges to shy away from recruiting him. He decided to declare eligibility for the 1984 draft, and was signed by the Chicago Cubs. He played his first Major League game with the Cubs in 1986. His first full season as a pitcher in the Major Leagues was rough, but by 1988, he'd hit his stride.
